What is the ruling on a domestic worker performing Hajj without a mahram?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I have a domestic worker who recently converted to Islam and wishes to perform Hajj. Am I obligated to give her permission to perform Hajj without a mahram? And if I do not give her permission, will I be sinful?

Answer:
You will not be sinful for not giving her permission. If you all perform Hajj with the family and she performs it with you, that is a good thing. If the family performs Hajj, she performs it with you, that is a good thing, because each person either stays at home or performs Hajj with them. Yes.
